Abstract

Ce cycle de réfrigération à éjecteur comprend un compresseur (11), un condenseur (12), un éjecteur (14), une unité de dépressurisation côté admission (15), un évaporateur côté admission (19), un passage de dérivation de guidage (16), et un mécanisme d'étranglement variable (17). L'unité de dépressurisation côté admission dépressurise un fluide frigorigène. L'évaporateur côté admission amène le fluide frigorigène détendu par l'unité de dépressurisation côté admission à s'évaporer et à s'écouler vers le côté orifice d'admission du fluide frigorigène. Le passage de dérivation amène le fluide frigorigène sur le côté d'entrée de l'unité de dépressurisation côté admission à contourner l'unité de dépressurisation côté admission et à guider ledit fluide frigorigène vers le côté d'entrée de l'évaporateur côté admission. Le mécanisme d'étranglement variable règle le débit du fluide frigorigène s'écoulant dans le passage de dérivation. L'unité de dépressurisation côté admission modifie l'ouverture d'étranglement de telle sorte que le degré de surchauffe (SH1) du fluide frigorigène sur le côté de sortie de l'évaporateur côté admission approche d'un degré de surchauffe de référence prédéterminé (KSH1). Le mécanisme d'étranglement variable a pour fonction d'ouvrir et de fermer le passage de dérivation, et ouvre le passage de dérivation si le débit (Ge1) du fluide frigorigène s'écoulant hors de l'unité de dépressurisation côté admission n'est pas supérieure à un débit de référence prédéterminé (KGe1).
